India wallop Australia: Second Test

As I'm overseas I've not been able to watch any more than a few brief snippets of the action on TV but the scorecard speaks for itself: India were clearly the better side.

The huge victory should do wonders for their confidence. Can Australia regroup and make the rest of the series more competitive? I'm reluctant to write off any Australian team but the gap between the current underachieving one and India is very wide.
